The more detailled guide from Tensorflow's website broken down. I will use the VirtuelEnv, Python 2.7 and zsh. Enjoy!

Installing Tensorflow
Shell commands
sudo easy_install pip
pip install --upgrade virtualenv
virtualenv --system-site-packages <targetDirectory>
cd <targetDirectory>
source ./bin/activate
easy_install -U pip
pip install --upgrade tensorflow
Test if the installation has worked
python
# inside the python shell
import tensorflow as tf
hello = tf.constant('Hello, TensorFlow!')
sess = tf.Session()
print(sess.run(hello))
This should show 'Hello, TensorFlow!' in the console.
If not, check out the official homepage for a solution.
Set up Visual Studio Code
Install the Visual Studio Python Extension
Set up the virtual environment
For more details, see the official site.
Tip: To see your path use 'echo $VIRTUAL_ENV'
When the setup settings are not working, simply activate the virtualenv in the terminal with
source ./bin/activate
See a Github repository for a test.
